A hosted payment page is a payment page hosted by the payment provider — branded for the merchant but served from the provider’s infrastructure — rather than embedded directly in the merchant’s own site. The customer is redirected from the merchant site to enter card details on the hosted page and then back again once the payment is complete. The model keeps card data out of the merchant’s systems and reduces PCI DSS scope considerably.

Hosted payment page
A payment page hosted by the payment provider rather than embedded in the merchant’s site.
Why it matters in travel
Hosted payment pages are popular in travel because they minimise PCI scope and let the same payment provider be used across multiple booking platforms and brands without bespoke integration work. The trade-off is a slightly less integrated UX than a fully embedded checkout.
For a multi-brand travel group, the hosted page is the practical answer to "how do we accept the same way across five booking systems without owning PCI scope on any of them?" The page sits at the same domain pattern, the styling carries the brand, and the underlying integration is one acquirer connection rather than five. The operations team gets one set of behaviours to learn rather than five.
The cost of a hosted page is the UX gap at the redirect moment. Customers see the domain change, the layout subtly shift, the back button stop working as expected. The travel businesses that mitigate this match the hosted page to the brand carefully and instrument the journey on both sides of the redirect; those that do not see drop-off at the moment of redirection and rarely know why.
